Have you ever wanted to return a product because it is faulty / not something you wanted, but lost the slip? Don’t lie, everyone has. But no more! Now you can take a picture of the receipt on your phone, add a description, and store it safely on your phone! Other use cases are: You […]

I recently saw that my old Lyrics & Meaning website (lyricsmeaning.za.net) was attacked with lots of spam bots, and the lyrics were not updating properly etc, so I decided its time to revamp! Yes, it looks much much better: Old vs New For the Front-End, I used: Angular.JS I […]

Paintball has always been one of those activities that everyone likes, no matter if its for a bachelor party, a casual game with friends, or as a profession.

My first attempt at blogging was a huge fail, because I tried to fill it with code examples which is better suited on http://stackoverflow.com/ etc. So this round I will only upload my personal creations and thoughts, and maybe upload some portfolio stuff. If you have any suggestions or ideas what to put on the blog, […]
